- Grease a baking pan with oil and flour, pour in half of the batter, distribute the filling evenly on top, and cover with the remaining batter.
- Finish the assembly by decorating with tomato slices, a pinch of oregano, and grated parmesan cheese to taste.
- Preheat the oven on high heat and bake the tart for approximately 35 to 40 minutes.
- Perform the toothpick or fork test after 35 minutes.
- If it comes out dry, the tart is ready to be removed from the oven.
- Let the tart cool for a few minutes before slicing to ensure it is well-structured for serving.
